Comment align problem

[docwalez]

Hi there,

i don't understand why the comment line(Test:) don't align with my other lines. I've created an example that shows up this issue. Each line has the same row number/titles (Name: Current: Average: Maximum). The only way to get this aligned was adding some whitespaces behind the comment line but this can't be the solution, i think

Some info about my System:
RRDTool 1.3.8-1 with Cacti 0.8.7e-1 on Debian.
Font is taken directly from Fontconfig, a strace gives me
"/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansMono.ttf" as used font.

rrdtool cmd:

/usr/bin/rrdtool graph - --imgformat=PNG --start=-86400 --end=-300 --title="Localhost - Memory Usage" --base=1000 --height=120 --width=500 --alt-autoscale-max --lower-limit=0 --vertical-label="kilobytes" --slope-mode --font TITLE:12: --font AXIS:8: --font LEGEND:9: --font UNIT:8: DEF:a="/var/lib/cacti/rra/localhost_mem_buffers_3.rrd":mem_buffers:AVERAGE DEF:b="/var/lib/cacti/rra/localhost_mem_swap_4.rrd":mem_swap:AVERAGE CDEF:cdefa=a,1024,* CDEF:cdefe=b,1024,* AREA:cdefa#FF4105FF:"Free" GPRINT:cdefa:LAST:"Current\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINT:cdefa:AVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINT:cdefa:MAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s\n" AREA:cdefe#FFC73BFF:"Swap":STACK GPRINT:cdefe:LAST:"Current\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINT:cdefe:AVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINT:cdefe:MAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s\n" COMMENT:"Test\:" GPRINTLAST:"Current\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINTAVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s" GPRINTMAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s\n"

There is not a graphed item associated with Test:, thus its offset from the rest. Try adding a few spaces before Test: in the graph template.

Hello BSOD2600,
thank's for your reply. I'm confused cause "Test:" has an association with [mem_buffers] in the graph template as shown on the screenshot. So, is the only suitable solution adding spaces bevor/after "Test:" COMMENT line ?

"Test:" is not a graph type of area or line, thus no colored box before the text.

Yes, you'll need to add some spaces before the text to help with the alignment.
